Eva Markvoort: Blogger with CF

Eva Markvoort talks about CF, her double lung transplant, chronic rejection and hope. Eva died in 2010 at the age of 25. Her importance as a blogger lead to the CNN article Death at 25: Blogging the end of a life.

Eva, from British Columbia, Canada, became well known through her blog 65 Red Roses: Thoughts on Living with CF and the documentary about her - 65 Redroses. Her blogging name comes from the now "CF lore" story of a young child who could not pronounce cystic fibrosis - instead calling it 65 roses.
